Interaction Intranet Conference #IIC14 is once again shaping up to be the best intranet conference in the UK and something you definitely don’t want to miss out on if your role involves looking after your company’s intranet.

This year we have some fantastic new speakers lined up to motivate you to create an intranet that inspires, informs, involves & aids interaction amongst employees. If you haven’t booked your tickets for this event do it now to benefit from our early bird offer which is available until 31st July with prices starting from £129.99.

99% of Interaction’s 2013 attendees would recommend this event to others – see what they had to say about last year’s event:

Interaction Intranet Conference runs over two days – the 15th October is our dedicated customer workshop, and the 16th October is Europe’s largest intranet conference which includes a unique intranet expo area, giving you the chance to see live demos of leading intranets such as Barnardo’s, DWF and Mediterranean Shipping Company.

We have an amazing line-up of speakers this year including the ‘Rockstar of Business Education’ – Professor Eddie Obeng, who is a world class speaker and business educator, and spoke at Jive World in Las Vegas last year. Eddie will open the conference with his electric talk – ‘Make it happen – adapting to a fast changing world’, in which he highlights three important changes we should understand for better productivity, and calls for a stronger culture of “smart failure.”
